Take Me Home by Us

Lyrics to Take Me Home by Us

Verse 1
I’m only happy when I’m with you
Home for me, is where you are
I try to smile and push on through
But home for me is where you are

Prechorus
They tell me that I’ll make it
It’ll only be a while
But a while lasts forever
Without you

Chorus
Send out the alarms, I’m all alone
Wrap me in your arms and take me home
Take me home
To your arms

Verse 2
I won’t be happy ’till I’m with you
Home for me is where you are
These four walls are nothing without you
Home for me is where you are

Pre-chorus
They tell me that I’ll make it
It’ll only be a while
But a while lasts forever
Without you

Chorus
Send out the alarms, I’m all alone
Wrap me in your arms and take me home
Take me home
To your arms

(Instrumental)

Chorus
Send out the alarms, I’m all alone
Wrap me in your arms and take me home
Take me home
Take me home
Take me home
To your arms

Exotic by Priyanka Chopra x Pitbull

Exotic by Priyanka Chopra x Pitbull

Actress turned singer Priyanka Chopra released her song “Exotic” with the help of Pitbull. “Exotic”, the first single off Priyanka Chopra’s debut studio album, brings together critically acclaimed actress Priyanka Chopra and Pitbull, AKA “Mr. Worldwide,” in a high-energy dance track for the US market, the first ever international collaboration with a Bollywood superstar. “Exotic” infuses a seductive mix of pop, hip-hop, and electro with accents of contemporary and classic Indian music, plus Hindi lyrics written and performed by Priyanka — these resonances are consistently woven throughout each track of the album.

“I wrote these lyrics for my new track,’Pardesi babu ne is Desi dil ko maan Liya hai,’ which means, ‘this foreign guy has taken my Indian heart.’ In this case there are two guys!” said Priyanka Chopra. “I recorded “Exotic” in Ibiza with musical genius and visionary RedOne (guy #1), and none other than Mr. Worldwide aka Pitbull (guy #2). Together they helped me create a hot and sexy summer anthem that I am so proud of! This is just the beginning, and I can’t wait to share this song and the rest of the album with you!”

Chopra, who is a classically trained singer, is best known as one of India’s most celebrated actresses, with a significant fan base that spans the UK, Europe, Middle East and Canada. She has enjoyed phenomenal success internationally, appearing in more than 40 movies and winning many of India’s most coveted awards. This is the former Miss World’s first foray into the global music scene after being discovered.

America got its first taste of Chopra with her track “In My City,” which debuted last September on the NFL Network’s Thursday Night Kickoff, and sold more than 100,000 copies in its first week of release. With a guest appearance by will.i.am, “In My City” layers Chopra’s sweetly sleek vocals over lush synth tones and brain-bending beats.

Lyrics to Exotic by Priyanka Chopra x Pitbull

Chorus:
Cool me down
I’m feeling so exotic
Ya right now
I’m hotter than the tropics
Take me down
mumbai Cuba, baby let’s go
La-love me all the way to Rio
desi girl!
I’m feeling so exotic!

[Indian Lyrics]
Tumko jo dekha maine
Toh maine ye jaan liya hai
Pardesi babu ne
Is desi dil ko maan liya hai (x2)

I’m like Bon Jovi, I’m on it
dead or alive, you all better get with it.
In the music game I’m worth more dead than alive
But that’s OK, I live with it!
That’s why I live everyday like my last
Priyanka, step on the gas!
From Morocco to Mumbai,
Bollywood to Hollywood is all about the money, cash!

Baby it’s so beautiful
Must just play and see
But if you want the world
I suggest you come with me (come with me)
La-la la la la… (Come with me)
La-la la la la…

Chorus: (x2)
Cool me down
I’m feeling so exotic
Ya right now
I’m hotter than the tropics
Take me down
Oh my Cuba, baby let’s go
La-love me all the way to Rio!

Baby girl!
I’m feeling so exotic!

[Indian Lyrics]

To Cuba’s free I can’t go
But I’ll meet you in Rio for sure
But performing a pitstop in Miami
home of the Heat and old school photos
Got women by the boatload
Were from duchies, Rolex and cocos
To the exhumers Turks and Caicos
No more rumors, maybes, or say sos.
It’s a fact, there is no liar
Get a radio rotation and tires
Miss World and Mr. Worldwide.
You already know that this thing is on fire!

Baby it’s so beautiful
Must just play and see
But if you want the world
I suggest you come with me (come with me)
La-la la la la… (Come with me)
La-la la la la…

Chorus: (x2)
Cool me down
I’m feeling so exotic
Ya right now
I’m hotter than the tropics
Take me down
Oh my Cuba, baby let’s go
La-love me all the way to Rio!

[Indian Lyrics]

Chorus: (x2)
Cool me down
I’m feeling so exotic
Ya right now
I’m hotter than the tropics
Take me down
Oh my Cuba, baby let’s go
La-love me all the way to Rio!

With You by Trin Monsta

Lyrics to With You by Trin Monsta

(verse 1)
and you can play it in ya’ stereo or boombox//
while you lickin on ya lollipop wearing tube sox//
ya so cute that you got me singin doo wop//
shoowop shoowop shoowop shoowop//
and in the night time you light up like a candle light//
you gotta get it movin but I gotta get it right//
and make some money so that me and you can keep it tight//
what I gotta do just to make you come and grab a bite//

(chorus)
now I’m tryina have fun wit you//
but I guess you got too many men to speak to me//
i’ll pack my things and run wit you//
far from home around the globe we can sail the seven seas//
be curious and dumb wit you//
and we can learn turn by turn we got new things to see//
i think i’m in love wit you//
i can’t express how much your smile really means to me//

(verse 2)
i wrote a song that you could listen to and sing along//
remember it everytime you hear it in ya ring tone//
they probably never heard it – i made da song just for you//
you never really see me cause you always with a couple dudes//
there’s really nothin new I wanna know wassup wit you//
and if I had a buck or two then I could get a hug from you//
i’d never have to pick you up without a car runnin shoes//
and I could put the top down then enjoy the sun with you//
(chorus repeat)

(bridge)
in the time that I think about what the hell is goin on//
feel ya waste so embraced in the grip of my palms//
every second counts – that’s what I heard from my moms//
I need love I need hugs like a pair of draws//

(verse 3)
and I’m just playin wit you – you my baby boo//
and if they call you crazy then I must be crazy too//
and I don’t ever quit, give it up, or play to lose//
i fell on my butt today the pain made a bruise//
and I added classes on the same days as you//
you never notice me I guess you just way way too cool//
girl I know that I’m boring and I’m lazy//
but I wanna lay in bed huggin on my main squeeze//

(instrumental break)

(chorus repeat)
